The Chimney House

Art Direction for Photography

Out on a Sunday stroll with a camera around Sheffield in late February.  There’s still a fascinating number of factories still within a short walking distance of the main retail centre of Sheffield City Centre.  Forgotten works with rusting signs we’re our main focus this time around, as we tried to capture the last of a declining industry before the developers move in for good.  These rich and early pioneering environments are perfectly matched with The Chimney House branding, capturing a future sense of times past.  We’ll keep adding to this photo collection, in the mean time more are available to view now at www.flickr.com/photos/thechimneyhouse, and on The Chimney House project overview.

Nonnas

Imitation Wax Seal Logo

Going back to their roots, we helped Nonnas identify a strategy for moving the brand forward, analysing their previous identity from their first incarnation, a hand written piece of script.  Bringing it up to date and maintaining a strong sense of familiarity we’ve applied the logo to new applications such as this wax seal.  Building content like this for any brand is critical, and using the accompanying statement ‘Importato Dall’ Italia’ reinforces Nonnas ties to Italian cooking, food and passion.

The Chimney House

The Meeting Room Logo

A modern icon of a historic building.  Set on the banks of the Goit, The Chimney House with it’s 93ft chimney soaring into the skies needed no other depiction.  As one of very few buildings on the Island, we were keen to include the ex industrial, now high class residential and heritage buildings surrounding The Chimney House – to help provide a context for the building.  A bold and choicey range of colours play their role in defining a nostalgic yet modern feel to the brand.

Jones and Co.

New logo and identity

Good words spread far, and some made it over the hill amidst the snow and ice to the City of Manchester.  93ft are currently in the middle of delivering a multi disciplinary design package, including re brand and new identity for this esteemed brand. Formerly Stuart Jones Styling Opticians – Jones and Co. is the new name in bespoke and luxury optics.  Soon to arrive, a full stationary pack including business cards with hand drawn illustrated profiles from graphic mastermind Mitchy Bwoy, and letterheads and prescription cards printed on a range of off white heritage brand papers.  Keep your eyes peeled (excuse the pun) for further developments of this brand as we unfold a new way finding scheme, and full interior design package coming to the King Street branch early Summer 2010.

Arundel Joinery

Company Logo

‘Create me a logo that captures the hand crafted and bespoke nature of our fine wood doors and frames’.  So we did.  Identifying the wood plane as a symbol of traditional hand crafted joinery products, we referenced the seal shape to help validate and certify the brand name and quality of their products.  A considered colour palette brings this logo current to trends referencing companies like Farrow and Ball.  This new professional image has been rolled out on van livery, stationary, advertising, and website.  More to come from here, as soon as it’s a nice sunny day, preferably hot!

The Chimney House

Cards and Leaflets

Our theory is that if everything you do looks attractive and appealing then it will generally create interest and importantly in this day and age, followers.  Simple 2 sided flyers to promote The Chimney House pre-launch to the general public.  We started to use some of the brand elements to help build a flavour of the brand, these include the logo, Meeting Room stamp and written content along with a rather tasty palette of Pantone colours.  Cost effective to produce, but highly effective.  Would you like a flyer?  Yes please!

Bike Science

Website Logos

Our client set up Bike Science to offer athletes and those cyclists who want to squeeze out that little bit more performance from their equipment the chance to enjoy a professional bike fitting service.

For this he needed an identity so he could start marketing himself and his services with confidence and integrity!  We set about looking at visual associations close to the field of Science – and what better than the periodic table!  Using close references to this we set about developing the rest of the identity and brand around other scientific and measurement based symbols and icons.

Developing a line of on-brand web icons to accompany sections of the website, by pulling in details such as speed gauges, clocks and directional arrows to help instil a sense of precision and high performance.

The brand continues to develop as we work on the Bike Science e-commerce website.

Memo Market

memo_market_08

The name Memo Market was created for the first market in Sheffield that reflected the City as a whole – bringing in elements of fashion, music, sport, art, culture together in a 2 day festival  – a mix of life and style. It was a call for action for people in the City to remember what and who was in Sheffield. Joining forces with our local worldwide illustrator Nick Deakin who was commissioned to illustrate what we hoped the market would look like meant the brand was crucial in attracting over 10,000 visitors and achieving it’s goal of boosting local economy and giving retailers a platform to meet their audiences.

Memo Market has been called for to appear in Sheffield 4 times a year – with over 42 brands involved in 2009 it’s set to be a burgeoning market empire.
